Key factors for position . . .
• Website is coded cleanly and is W3C compliant • SEO strategy in place • XML Sitemap & rbt.txt file • Page load speed • Content rich pages • Page Rank • Inbound linking
These are important but are only a few of the over 200 signals Google uses to position a webpage.

Understanding Page Rank
Straight from the horses mouth . . .
Relevance: As Larry said long ago, we want to give you back “exactly what you want.” When Google was founded, one key innovation was PageRank, a
technology that determined the “importance” of a webpage by looking at what other pages link to it, as well as other data. Today we use more than 200 signals, including PageRank, to order websites, and we update these algorithms on a weekly basis. For example, we offer personalized search results
based on your web history and location.
